DEVICE FOR DISPLAYING PHOTOGRAPHS OR THE LIKE.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented June 3, 1919.

Application filed December 22, 1917. Serial N 0. 208,458.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, EMILE BARTHELEMY, a citizen of the French Republic, photographer, residing in Ohalons sur Saone, France, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Devices for Displaying Photographs or the like, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to improvements in devices for displaying photographs or the like.

The device consists in the combination of an ordinary medallion or frame with a tubeshaped mount, intended to be placed on the end of a penholder, pencil or the like, to allow the person using it to have under his eyes one or two photographs of individuals or the like.

The annexed drawing illustrates an example of construction of the invention on an enlarged scale.

In this drawing a is the medallion or frame of the ordinary type capable of opening and in which is placed, on one or both of its sides, the photograph or photographs to be displayed and I) is the mount to which the medallion is fixed.

The mount 7) is composed of a sheath or tube cut at its lower end to form a number of small tongue-pieces 19 preferably forming springs and intended to fasten the medallion firmly on the end of the pencil or penholder.

One or more additional rows of springclaws b b can also be provided in order to obtain stronger fixing. These claws can, for instance, be composed of tongue-pieces obtained by notching the wall of the sheath and bending inward the tongues so formed.

The juncture of the medallion with its mount can of course be made in various ways 40 and be variously decorated. The mount could likewise form an integral part of the penholder if desired.

What I claim as my invention and desire .to secure by Letters Patent of the United EMILE BARTHELEMY.
